Pushing Daisies! Oh, now I miss it again

I never watched it. The concept kinda creeped me out.

But I enjoy cheese. Not as much as I used to, since I can't eat so much rich stuff anymore, but I like a good hunk of Swiss or Provolone cheese on a sandwich. Drool.

I'm really into cottage cheese misself. Lots of people think it's scary because of the texture. I think it's wonderful because of its deliciousness.

It's done really whimsically. There's a narrator who almost always speaks in verse at the beginning of each episode, really lovable, eccentric characters and kind of ridiculous but really wonderful plots. I think you'd like it.

I've recently discovered 'exotic' types of brie! So brie stuffed with chives or plum. It's delicious.

Speaking of cheese... just made this... I was all... I have this cream cheese and I have this chocolate (leftovers from Thing III)

I freaking love cheese.  There's a Greek store near where I live that has a whole section of imported cheeses (over half a dozen types of feta alone).  I like to go there and just browse.  They also have free samples.  Among my favorites are a wine goat cheese, called Drunken Goat, and a truffle cheese that has an ash rind.  There's also an awesome blue cheese wrapped in leaves.

Anyway, I am addicted to cheese.  My homemade pizzas will always have multiple cheeses (up to 4 or 5) on them and my alfredo sauce is incredibly rich and cheesy.  I cannot stress this enough.  I adore cheese.

I'm so happy to see posts in this thread again. This thread is like vital to the humanity... and the cheesity... of these forums.

I for one am debating finding all manner of recipes which use cream cheese... having made the aforementioned pie and a cheese cake and having previously made sweet rolls with a cream cheese frosting, I have found that cream cheese is interesting and fun to work with.

And should always be fed to me. You forgot that step.

I'm surprised that there aren't more (legible) recipes for cheese in Spanish and Portuguese on the Internet.  Spanish-speaking countries tend to be big fans of cheese, and I'm sure the Brazilians and Portuguese have plenty.  I did, however, find a good French site with quite a few recipes.  If anyone's interested, I'll link it here.  I can't touch the stuff anymore, but... I was addicted to my cheese.  Even the cheapy kinds worked for me.

Don't forget www.Fromages.com! (Interesting selection.)

It's my birthday tomorrow (in 12 minutes!), and I would like everyone to post pictures of interesting cheesecakes in this thread as celebration.

Thank you.

Happy Birthday!

Well, it's late and I don't really understand the idea of smearing curdled white liquid from mammary glands on top of cakes (but then again milk and me are not good friends).

[snabbott]

Well, Green Tea Cheesecake sounds interesting, anyway. I'm not sure whether it would be good or not.


Happy birthday!

[DawsonJ]

That cake looks like Pacman bred with a Chia Pet.  Hmm...

So, for a second, I thought your username was MilkPal and I was really confused.

I'm medicated, it's allowed!

I'd be interested to try green tea cheesecake....it would either be really good, or REALLY not.

That's kind of what I was thinking. Green tea ice cream isn't bad.

[crayauchtin]

Heck, green tea isn't bad!

Deloria and I got Brie last week. It went runny. We left it on a plate and it expanded in a near-perfect circle. We had to contain it by putting the lid of a pot over it. Then it set. Eventually we had to scrape it off the plate and throw it away.

That concludes our cheese story.

[Deloria]

We should have known better. The Cheese Shop sketch has revealed that soft cheeses go very, very runny and then the cat gets into them.
